How to remove word verification in Blogger

Follow my blog with Bloglovin
Is anyone else finding the new word verification captcha system frustrating?! These two, blurry, difficult to read words are making my blog commenting life rather miserable!

When I first started my blog I disabled it straight away but someone recently advised me it was there again. When I went to Settings I couldn't find anywhere to disable it.

I worked out how and thought I would share in case you're frustrated by this problem as well! 

1) First, you need to switch to the old interface - the new one doesn't have an option to remove word verification. To do this, click on the little cog symbol under your name, and select 'Old Blogger Interface'.


2) Once you're back to the old interface, click on Settings.


3) Once you're into the 'Settings' section, click on the 'Comments' tab.


4) Scroll down until you see 'Show word verification for comments?'. Click 'NO'.


Easy, hey? You can switch back to the old interface by clicking on the 'Try the updated blogger interface' link at the top right of your screen, and you're all fixed.

Hope this helps!
